Marvel NOW! – Review Post 2
By MSchiwal 2 Comments
All New X-Men
"I'm telling you if the young us saw what was going on today it would feel worse than the mutant apocalyptic nightmare we used to worry about!"
This is the series I was most excited about with NOW! starting as its all about shaking up the Mutant status quo. With new mutants emerging all over the planet, multiple factions are snatching them up as quickly as possible, we see that this has become Cyclop's focus at the moment as we see him recruit two incredibly powerful mutants, one who can control time and the other who can heal people even after their death. These sequences where we get to see both powers emerge and Team Cyclops go into battle is where the art explodes in this issue, its absolutely gorgeous and worth the price of admission alone. Back at the Jean Grey School, the X-Men are unsure of how to proceed, many still in shock of what Cyclops has become… Beast, however, is firing on all cylinders to try and put the world in order as he has learned that he does not have much more time left. Once more Henry McCoy's mutation is jumping forward, and from his predictions… his body just won't be able to handle it. So Beast fires up his flux capacitor and snags the original team of X-Men into the future. Hopeful that by seeing what has become of their world… they can stop it from ever occurring.
If I had to describe this issue in one word it would be bold. The premise, the art… everything here is going for the knockout and its fantastic. The idea of forcing the current world to come face to face with its more innocent past is great and there are certain characters who I am really curious to see how they face their future… except Iceman, don't get me wrong I love Bobby but he hasn't changed much besides unleashing his Omega level potential and starting to date Kitty Pryde… Hell that should be the whole point of Beast's lecture to the original team, "Be more like Bobby. Just be relaxed and groovy and everything will turn out well in the end!" Meanwhile Bobby and Bobby can kick back and make sweet ice slides. Hell Yeah.
The biggest downfall of this issue is that if you have been following the series online than you already know everything that happens in this issue. Still that is entirely a problem with poor marketing on Marvel's part and this issue itself is nothing but quality.
Captain America
"I sometimes forget how to be a normal person. I've been the soldier for so long… might be there's no turning back."
First off, a moment of silence for Ed Brubaker's historic run on Captain America. You respected the character, integrity, and legacy of the hero all while telling a fun story, and for that you have our thanks.
This series begins with a tonal shift that I am sure will lose some readers from the previous series, however it is so well.. comic book that I am devouring it like cake. Captain America is attacking an airplane containing eco-terrorist, The Green Skull, who will destroy mankind to restore the planet Earth. This whole intro is pretty much here to set the standard of Steve being badass and show him doing his thing, I would honestly say its the weakest part of the issue… however I REALLY want to see more of Green Skull, its just hilarious to me. Steve then meets up with his long time girlfriend Agent 13 aka Sharon Carter for his birthday. Two things here get applauded by me here.
1: Steve Rogers is stated to be 90 years old. This had felt off to me, and I was worried they were either pushing up Cap's age or that the Marvel U is behind us. However Steve Rogers was born in 1922 so they got that right. It's one of those minor details I really appreciate.
2: Sharon Carter. I love these two together and its really nice that they gave Steve time with her before the adventure start. When he is with her he gets to just be Steve Rogers and not Captain America, so I am glad they managed to fit in some time there. Also important is that Sharon has proposed to Steve and is still waiting for his answer… the fact that she was the one who asked makes me smile broadly.
Seriously, that is amazing. We also meet our villain for this arc, Arnim Zola… One of Cap's strangest villains who is a perfect fit for the feel Remender is going for. While I am not a Zola fan, myself, there is already some new threads to this character that have colored me intrigued. As for the artwork, Romita Jr is an incredibly polarizing artist and many people openly revile his artwork. Personally, I am a fan, I think he has a unique style and I enjoy it, especially here as the colorist on the series is top notch. Still there are some people who will not buy the comic on Romita's sake alone. This is an interesting set up for the Sentinel of Liberty, it however does stumble a bit as most of the issue is set up. A return to a more glorious and psychotic age of comics, looking forward to it.
Fantastic Four
"Is there anything in the known universe that can reverse molecular decay of this rate, on this scale?"
"Negative, sir"
"So that just leaves the unknown universes then, hm?"
The Fantastic Four is at its best when it is rocketing into science fiction so fast and hard that it gives physics and causality whiplash. So let me set up the basic plot for this starting arc…
Reed Richards' powers are decaying in a way that would kill him, and he there is no way to save him.. so he decides to pack up the family into their spaceship and travel into unknown, uncharted universes where a cure might exist all the while treating the whole thing as a family outing. They will spend a year traveling this way through the outer reaches of infinity and the trip will only seem like four minutes on Earth… theoretically.
This proves once again that Reed Richard's real superpower isn't stretching… its making the universe his bitch… WITH SCIENCE!
Everyone gets a scene to shine here… save perhaps Sue although she is prevalent throughout as the glue that holds everything together. While I found Johnny's scene amusing and was quite thankful for them introduce(shudder) Miss Thing before hand, I was also going "Really? You have been a hero and an adult for this long and you are still THIS guy?" We also find out the reason for the new FF series. They are a team put together in order to guard the building/Earth and fill in for the Fantastic Four… while they are gone for those four minutes…. yeah I get the feeling they may not make that deadline. This is a good start with an intriguing premise and I am expecting it to only get better when they get into space.
Overall this is a strong premiere for the first family. With a great premise, interesting threat, and, most importantly, the presence of Franklin Richards. I am going to continue on this one personally, if you are interested in the Fantastic Four at all, even if you haven't read them before, I feel this is a good place to start.
This issue's story will link directly into FF #1.
The Indestructible Hulk
"I will be lucky if my tombstone doesn't simply read 'Hulk Smash.' So. How do we fix that?"
In many ways Hulk is Marvel's Superman. The single most powerful hero in their stable to the point that it becomes hard to become invested because there is no danger to the character, the more danger there is to the character and the more powerful they become. One of the ways writers try to balance this is by making the Hulk more of a natural calamity like in the old days, Hulk would appear and would level a city… no reasoning, just the brute… that school of thought still doesn't allow us to empathize or connect with the character, it simply allows us to enjoy the spectacle of the carnage. This, however, is a folly… it drives the character back to who he was ages ago, Hulk has been a hero for decades now. A founding member of the Avengers, and while he still has rage and causes collateral damage, he is not a mindless brute…. Finding the method to both invest and intrigue us is the balancing act and the key to the whole thing… is Banner. This is something Waid both recognizes and capitalizes.
Bruce Banner is one of the smartest men on Earth(alongside Stark, Pym, Richards, and T'Challa) however he has spent all of his vast intellect on one thing for years… how to fix himself. This series begins with him realizing that he can't, not now at least, so he needs to stop think of it as something to cure and as something to live through… This series begins after Banner has this realization and he confronts Mariah Hill in a diner. Bruce tells her his plan for his immediate future, SHIELD will fund his research and in exchange he will provide them with miracles. Also when and if the Hulk emerges SHIELD will deploy him, "a cannon instead of a bomb" as Banner puts it.
The set up in this book is brilliant, its a wonderful direction to take these characters in, and its especially great to see such a focus on Banner. Another thing of note is the art which is pretty damn good, one or two awkward talking head scenes aside, the color is fantastic though. Mark Waid is a phenomenal author and an inspired choice to write this, here is hoping he can do for the Hulk what he did for Daredevil(btw go read Waid's Daredevil). This is one of my favorites so far to come from Marvel NOW! and I recommend it to everyone.
Journey Into Mystery
"The worthy get that which they warrant."
Journey Into Mystery is a continuing title into NOW! and did not restart its numbering, this story begins with #646.
I started reading Journey about a month ago because Kid Loki is amazeballs, however that storyline has reached its heart ripping end(to be continued in Young Avengers!). I wasn't sure if I would continue the series after that because Asgard doesn't always suit my taste… then they announced that Lady Sif would be our new lead and I fist pumped so hard that I shattered continuity.
I am really happy to see Marvel putting a spotlight on so many of their female characters with NOW! and its quite an honor for this character to be the one carrying this title(besides as awesome as she is Journey Into Mystery is a much cooler title than The Lady Sif)…. Now as far as the issue goes… I have to admit I was bored when it started, Sif saved a child from a burning library and then talked with Volstagg's family. I get that we are establishing the character for new readers via some dialogue but this dragged for me. The story picks up in the middle with Sif going Hoth in Hel and continues picking up pace until the smashing finale. From what I have seen so far, this is looking to be an interesting storyline… I do feel that it could have been told better however but this was simply the first issue so I won't judge to harshly until I have read some more. That being said there are some really cool moments here, all just toward the end of the issue, with Sif's questing for power taking a really unexpected and dark turn.
I enjoyed this issue even if it didn't have quite as much polish as some of the number ones. If the story continues its pace where we had left off I think we will have a Lady Sif story worth hearing and worth a recommendation.
Red She-Hulk
"You want to see what superhuman is?"
Red She-Hulk is a continuing title into NOW! and did not restart its numbering, this story begins with #58.
Okay I can understand the re-numbering on a lot of series, and some series didn't need. Hawkeye, Captain Marvel, Daredevil, Wolverine and the X-Men… all new enough that they didn't need to be shaken up and rebooted. I also get that some characters are not A-List and may need to carry on a title in order to find their readership(like Sif and Journey Into Mystery)… this doesn't make sense to me though. This series WAS Hulk… Hulk got up to 57 and then the name changed to Red She-Hulk and began its numbering at 58. You changed the title! Why not just start with an issue one to begin with?!
Okay so that aside…. I do not like this series. For those not in the know, Red She-Hulk(god I wish she had stuck with Hellion) is Betty Ross, Bruce Banner's ex wife(this character was portrayed by Liv Tyler in the most recent Hulk film). I am familiar with the character only with the most recent Defenders series… and I was really looking forward to it based on her from there, she was fun, she had her big ass sword and bombed around being awesome. Here though… she is just so annoying. The series begins with the government showing off military super soldiers, and Red She-Hulk shows up, throws a tank, and beats the crap out of them. Its like we missed a step and skipped over her justification/motivation… I mean I get that she was given powers against her will and may be against the idea of people getting power implanted… but these are all people who volunteered for the process, she may as well start attacking Captain America. Later on she goes undercover to the lab where they are doing the research and one of the subjects is a criminal and threatens to rape her so she hulks out and kills him. First off, this is a really lame way to try and justify her rampage… that since they are willing to use a guy like this in their program the whole thing must be evil… Also I am really, REALLY tired of female heroes being threatened with rape. Don't get me wrong, I have no illusions about how prevalent it is in our society… but if you have a man against a woman it seems to his Plan A is to go straight for rape. Its disrespectful to women, its insulting to men, and it shows a lack of imagination from the author. Hell, one of the best examples I can think of around this is from Alias, where Jessica Jones was mind controlled by the Purple Man for eight months and at no point in that did he use her sexually.
Then we have the man who is chasing after Betty… AARON STACK, THE MACHINE MAN!!!
Nextwave being, quite possibly, the best thing ever written in the history of human intelligence. I was giddy as hell to see Aaron again… but I really dislike his design now, its just too busy and glowing and I feel like he is from TRON and not an android. While Aaron is suitably badass in this so far, he also feels underutilized and wasted in THIS series.
While I have mostly been restricting these reviews to first issues, the second issues of this has come out and well… it was even worse. Red She-Hulk is being chased by the Avengers(BECAUSE SHE ATTACKED A MILITARY INSTALLATION) and at no point does she try and talk to these people even though she is friends with some of them and known others for years.. hell her Dad is a member… and then the issue ends with her blowing up a bridge to stall her pursuers and yeah… I really don't think I can sum up my reasons for not enjoying this any better than that line… In Defenders she was this fun woman who ran with the bulls and crushed on the Silver Surfer…. she gets her own series and now she is a domestic terrorist. My only hope for Betty at this point is that she will get added to the Fearless Defenders series later on and is treated better by that writer… I WILL NOT be continuing to read this particular series.
Thor: God of Thunder
"I am Thor, warrior of Asgard, Avenger of Earth, and I swear on all that is holy no one will die here today."
Dear Gods of Asgard, this is METAL. This series follows our favorite God of Thunder through 3 ages as a mysterious foe emerges and hunts him through each age. Firstly we have Thor in his early days, carousing on Midgard, killing Frost Giants, and taking maiden's virginities left and right. This is a very brash and arrogant Thor, very much a teenager and obviously unworthy of Mjolnir. While crashing in a Norse Village he discovers the head of a severed scraeling and with both fear and excitement comes to the realization that this is a God…. someone murdered and butchered a God. Cut to the Thor of present day, and I have to say right away this scene shows everything I love about Thor as a character. An alien girl on a desert planet has heard of the Thunderer being one of the greatest of the gods and heroes in the universe and prays to him to bring rain to save her home. Thor obliges. While I understand the reason in the movies to not allow leeway on the whole "God" aspect of Thor, he has always been a God in the Marvel Universe and seeing him answer a prayer is wonderful. Thor shows up and brings the storms with him, saving her village. Its a great moment. Easily convinced to stay and consume copious amounts of alien ale, he learns that the reason he was prayed to is because these people have no gods… Thor has never encountered a planet that was not looked after by deities and sets off to have a word with their reclusive rulers. This book is beautiful but the sequence of Thor in the Sky Castle is great, giving off great amounts of alien and horror that make the entire thing unsettling. Lastly we have Thor at the End… King of Asgard. This is an ancient Thor, covered in battle scars and missing an arm which has been replaced by a metal prosthetic. With both the Odinsword and Mjolnir at his side, this is without doubt the most powerful we have ever seen him… but there appears to be no one to fight, Thor is alone…. or so it appears. Asgard is besieged and Thor is the only one left alive, possibly in all the Nine Realms, and the last scene of this issue is Thor leaping into the opposing army, hoping at one last chance for Valhalla.
This comic is original, gorgeous, and left me awe-struck. Thor can be a very one-note character in inept hands however I am glad to report this team is anything but…. So far one of the best things to come out of NOW!
X-Men Legacy
"The old king is dead. Long live the new king."
Legion. Son of Charles Xavier. Omega Level Mutant. Completely batshit crazy. He is without doubt a character that makes many readers groan when he appears on page as he makes situations… complicated is probably the best way I can put it. For those of you who aren't aware of the character, a bit of history. Legion is a mutant who contains just about every power you can imagine, each power is possessed by another personality inside of him, each personality vying for power with occasional strong ones bubbling to the surface. If Legion could learn to control himself he would be a great man and one of the world's most powerful but as it is he is broken and undependable. When the series starts, Legion is in a commune for psychics, and is being instructed in controlling his powers. Legion has constructed a mental jail cell, imprisoning his personalities and taking them out of their cells when he needs their powers, it is a system that is working but takes a vast amount of concentration. This however is shattered when his father, Xavier, is murdered by Cyclops. The psychic shockwave ripping through the world and releasing the inmates in Legion's head. This is an interesting series however I don't see it gaining as much success as other and find it hard to recommend. Legion has never been a fan favorite character and this issue does not lend itself well to being a jumping on point for his story, however if you are a fan of the X-Men and are curious about the legacy of Xavier, this is the book you want to pick up.

Among people who bought private plans on MNsure so far, nearly a third selected "platinum" plans with the highest premiums but best benefits — an indication they are selecting plans they intend to use.
Coverage is coming a bit late for Jamez Smith, who lost his health insurance in 2013 when he was laid off from a nonprofit agency and then suffered a severe dog bite that left him with steep medical bills.
Still, the coverage Smith gained through MNsure will allow him to seek care he had put off — monthly visits his doctor recommended to manage high blood pressure.
"After I lost my job, I explained to him that I couldn't afford to see him once a month," said Smith, who is 50.
Van Auken was working in quality control for a hearing device company when she took a second job as an at-home caregiver; that pushed her income above the threshold for state-subsidized benefits. Then she lost her second job because her neglected health deteriorated.
Suffering an immune disorder that attacks her digestive system, Van Auken is supposed to take a $17,000-per-infusion drug, Remicade, every other month. But after she lost coverage, she received one infusion in September and put off another until she could obtain benefits under MNsure. In the interim, she was hospitalized for kidney stones and amassed $20,000 in medical debt.
"I'm relieved to have insurance," she said. "At my age anything can happen, and it did happen."

im a student in the crossroads of turning into a professional ;)
i have few unanswered questions to discuss...
Part one:
Till some time back.. I was pretty clear of the word 'interaction design'.
till I saw some works loosely replacing this word with things done by HCI
professionals and UI designers.
Now...I am little confused abt this word 'interaction design'..What does
this word 'interaction design' mean to people in the profession?
Part two:
Interaction design deals with interaction, function, usage, aesthetics,
and culture. so Is interaction design closer to 1),2) or 3)
2)Product design
3)Visual design/HCI

Heat/AC blower stopped working
2002 MDX, w/ the touchscreen navigation and touchscreen heat climate controls. Blower(fan) will not work in the front of the car. When i turn the fan on, you can hear the air blowing out of the rear vent, but no air comes out of any of the front vents. I know that the zone (floor, windshield, front) ducts are opening and closing properly, I can hear them change and feel the air 'floating' out of them, but the blower in the front is just not working. Is this is common thing w/ a high mileage MDX?

Did you check the thermal resistor?
I just replaced the one for the rear AC in our 2003 and got that working again - cost under $5 for the resistor and the shipping from digikey. Took me about 15-20 minutes for the whole process, including: removing the "transistor" module, taking out the 3 screws, de-soldering the old resistor (checked it with an ohm-meter first and it was definitely broken), putting heat shrink tubing to protect the legs of the new resistor and soldering the new resistor in place. I put the 3 screws back in and put the "transistor" module back in place, and now the rear AC works again. Check out this thread: 1st gen MDX Front AC fix Check out the whole thread before proceeding with the repair - it sounds like the same resistor works for both the front and rear AC units. If you have some spare time, the following thread discusses mostly the rear AC fix, but there is some stuff in there about the front AC: Broken Rear AC. Grrr... |

almost 3 years ago
I love this interview and I wish, that at the universities are held such practucally oriented lectures. The whole process from the beginning of the business to the future was described so clearly and passionately.
What I liked most of all is that this business has not only its business mission, but also its social mission - related with the healthy products ("fruits in bottles") for the the healthy nation, which is really very important.
I like very much the belief of Richard Reed for the better product and better brand. This is the way to make not only money, but to make the world a better place as well- with strong belief and never giving up.
Unfortunately the innocent brand is not launched in Bulgaria, but I'll taste these juices for sure, when I come to UK:)
Thank you for sharing this video. It's a treasure.

Korea's dirty secret
Dear editor,
This is in response to a Feb. 21 Korea Times article, 'ÄúBorder town brothels cohabit with military.'ÄĚ Surely it is now time for the Korean government to take action to bring an end to the brothel complex at Yongjugol in Paju, Gyeonggi Province. In the article, Lt. Col. Hwang Tae-ho, head of the military police at the 1st Infantry Division claims, 'ÄúWe don'Äôt have authority to crack down on brothels.'ÄĚ Elsewhere in the article a chief police inspector describes the inability of the police to enforce the law. Whilst nobody would doubt the reported difficulties involved in enforcing the law in this situation, for a country like South Korea to tolerate such a breathtaking and obvious flouting of the law right on the doorsteps of military establishments in the country is shameful and degrading. Many people turn a blind eye to this situation because it is imagined that the women who work in the brothels do so by choice, however there is strong evidence to suggest that many of the women have been 'Äútrafficked,'ÄĚ beaten and financially compromised to ensure their availability. The fact that the abuse of women in this way is excused in order to provide for the recreational habits of Korean soldiers is a black stain on the image and reputation of South Korea and an indication of its values and beliefs. Worse still is the fact that there is even a popular comic book called 'ÄúYongjugol'ÄĚ in Korea in which the abuse of women here is seen to be glamorized. Surely it is time for the Korean government to put an end to these establishments and send a message to all its citizens that Korea values mothers, sisters and daughters too much to allow any of them to be mere toys for boys.

One thing you fellow Canadians that are relatively close to a US border can try is to ship your product to a package holding place. I use Ship Happens.
This allows me to take advantage of free shipping deals that are offered to US addresses. I then drive across, pay $5 and pick up my package. I then bring it back across the border.... and usually, I don't get charged anything. Beware, that it depends on the border officer you get. But if your only spending $100 - $300 it's usually not a big deal and they just let you through. But just be warned, you should be prepared in case they charge you duty. And print off a receipt when to show the officer. Mt. Baker is just across the border from me. Next season, I'm going to order a board, pick it up that morning, mount my bindings, and ride it for the day at Baker then bring it back |

I have used package express this is oood for people in Vancouver area, and there's a few in Oroville for those in the interior of BC (Okanagan) such as Ship Happens. I know a few people who have used Betta's Services as well, though they don't forward packages. ALWAYS BRING RECEIPTS FOR ALL ITEMS WHEN YOU GO BACK ACROSS BORDER, DON'T RELY ON YOUR PACKAGES HAVING RECEIPTS! Paypal receipts work fine. I'll add this into the guide if I have room. |

A little warning though. Even though they are selling stepchild boards for 50% off; they don't tell you the model year. I think those stepchild boards are actually 08/09 models (two seasons ago). So just a little warning, as last years snowboard models are normally already 40-50% off in most stores; and old years are usually even cheaper. |

The Kane Chronicles, Book Two The Throne of Fire

In this exciting second installment of the three-book series, Carter and Sadie, offspring of the brilliant Egyptologist Dr. Julius Kane, embark on a worldwide search for the Book of Ra, but the House of Life and the gods of chaos are determined to stop them.
Rick Riordan (www.rickriordan.com) is the author of three different mythology-based series for Disney-Hyperion: the best-selling Percy Jackson series, the Kane Chronicles, and The Heroes of Olympus series. The first book in the Kane Chronicles, The Red Pyramid, was a number 1 New York Times bestseller. The five books in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series have sold millions of copies, been published in more than thirty countries, and inspired a major motion picture. Rick's novels for adults include the hugely popular Tres Navarre series, winner of the top three awards in the mystery genre. He lives in San Antonio, Texas, with his wife and two sons.
In The Red Pyramid (rev. 7/10), siblings Carter and Sadie Kane learned that as descendants of Egyptian pharaohs, they are magicians who can communicate with (and fight against) the Egyptian gods. Now with Apophis, Lord of Chaos, about to break his millennia-long imprisonment, Sadie and Carter must awaken Ra the Sun God to unite the gods and magicians against Apophis and save the world from destruction. Globetrotting action and irreverent commentary fly fast and furious as the pair battle gods, evil magicians, and mythical Egyptian monsters to retrieve the Book of Ra, then re-create the Sun God's nightly journey through the underworld to revive his spirit, meeting their dead parents and gambling for their own souls along the way. The author's formula works-the Egyptian myths offer a backdrop with plenty of depth, against which Riordan's wisecracking heroes can play out their high-stakes family, relationship, and personal dramas. And with Ra awakened but old and weak, the magicians in rebellion, personal peril and/or teenage heartbreak in store for the Kanes, and Apophis still on the rise, the expected third book in the Kane Chronicles promises to be as lively, humorous, and welcome as the first two.—Horn Book
Elaborating on the ominous revelation that caps The Red Pyramid (Hyperion, 2010), this planned trilogy's middle episode sends dual narrators Carter and Sadie Kane from their newly established school for sorcerers in Brooklyn to the underworld realm of the Duat, leaving massive trails of destruction on their way to a first face-off with Apophis, snake god of Chaos. Given just five days to find the retired god Ra god of order, or ma'at before Apophis escapes millennia of confinement and destroys the universe, the squabbling sibs also have their own growing magical abilities to explore; hostile factions of both human wizards and Egyptian gods to battle; monsters to face; temptations to overcome; infatuations to work through; rescues to make; and, of course, plenty of digs, wisecracks, fashion notes, and teen chatter to deliver. Fortunately they have some sturdy allies notably Bes, the god of little people and memorable for more than just his Speedo with "Dwarf Pride" written on the butt that is his battle costume. Despite helpful lists of Egyptian deities and terms at the back, readers unfamiliar with the opener may have trouble at the beginning keeping up with both the continuing plotlines and the teeming cast, but Riordan kickstarts the action, never lets up on the gas, balances laughs and losses with a sure hand, and expertly sets up the coming climactic struggle without (thankfully) ending on a cliff-hanger. It's a grand ride so far, showing nary a sign of slowing down.—SLJ

Founded in 1851 the Hill School, once an all boys boarding school, turned coed in 1997. Since the change the school mutated into a sick torture chamber of cruel an unusual punishment. Students enjoy a wide variety of sports, academics, and thinking up countless ways to end their lives. Free time at The Hill consists of a few precious minutes of sitting in your dorm room waiting for your life to start. Any attempts at having any fun whatsoever are futile, since the administration will find fault in even the most innocent of acts. You will be DC-ed or HC-ed and most likely suspended or kicked out. Thus ruining all your chances to get into a decent college. But don't worry, maybe the team of highly trained college advisors will use their ties with those facilities of "higher education" such as West Chester University to get you back on track. The Hill School often characterized as a prison cell; most people would rather walk into on coming traffic than spend more than few hours in this hellhole. And those who do enjoy The Hill include in the 75% of the population who are complete and utter faggots.

The Hill School is a cover for a secret government facility. This mentally facility conducts experiments on teenagers. Newcomers to this mental facility are castrated in order to suppress their sexual desires. The punishment for holding hands with the opposite sex is to have the individual's hand surgically removed. Studies are also conducted in regards to the effects on youth when living in a virtually fun-free environment. The school's student led secret society, FHSS (Fuck Hill School Society), is an organization of students who wish to escape from this facility. However, all documented efforts to escape were futile. The Hill School never releases its patients. All individuals who claim himself as an alumni or past associate are government hired impostors.

An institution located in Pottstown, PA, the slum of America. Hill School prides itself on its tradition, such as having seated meals and mandatory chapel services at 10 in the morning on Sundays. What is funny is that they, the administation, only keeps the tradition that it seems sutiable running. Expamle: The weekend of prom is now closed, meaning no one can leave after prom. they have to sit in theyre rooms and rot. How joyous. Is it not a tradition to go out, get laid, high, and wasted all in the same night after prom? Hill School also believes that it is proper for males to keep their dicks in a jar untill they graduate and only recently did they accept girls. We kids however are fighting the system by getting high, getting drunk, and having sex, as much and as often as we can. Possibly one day the Nazi's that run this joint will understand that we are kids, not machines programed for excellence. But until then, I'll jsut get blazed to pass the time away.

Second Temple period
The Second Temple period in Jewish history lasted between 530 BC and 70 AD,[1] when the Second Temple of Jerusalem existed. The sects of Pharisees, Sadducees, Essenes, and Zealots were formed during this period. The Second Temple period ended with the First Jewish–Roman War and the Roman destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple.
After the death of the last Jewish Prophets of the antiquity and still under Persian rule, the leadership of the Jewish people was in the hands of five successive generations of zugot ("pairs of") leaders. They flourished first under the Persians (c. 539–c. 332 BC), then under the Greeks (c. 332-167 BC), then under an independent Hasmonean Kingdom (140-37 BC), and then under the Romans (63 BC-132 AD).
During this period, Second Temple Judaism can be seen as shaped by three major crises and their results, as various groups of Jews reacted to them differently. First came the destruction of the Kingdom of Judah in 587/6 BC, when the Judeans lost their independence, monarchy, holy city and First Temple and were mostly exiled to Babylon. They consequently faced a theological crisis involving the nature, power, and goodness of God and were also threatened culturally, racially, and ceremonially as they were thrown into proximity with other peoples and religious groups. The absence of recognized prophets later in the period left them without their version of divine guidance at a time when they felt most in need of support and direction.[2] The second crisis was the growing influence of Hellenism in Judaism, which culminated in the Maccabean Revolt of 167 BC. The third crisis was the Roman occupation of the region, beginning with Pompey and his sack of Jerusalem in 63 BC.[2] This included the appointment of Herod the Great as King of the Jews by the Roman Senate, the Herodian Kingdom of Judea comprising parts of what today are Israel, Palestinian Authority, Gaza Strip, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria.
Construction of the Second Temple[edit]
Construction of the Second Temple was completed under the leadership of the last three Jewish Prophets Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi with Persian approval and financing.
Based on the biblical account, after the return from Babylonian captivity under Zerubbabel, arrangements were almost immediately made to reorganize the desolated Yehud Province after the demise of the Kingdom of Judah seventy years earlier. The body of pilgrims, forming a band of 42,360,[3] having completed the long and dreary journey of some four months, from the banks of the Euphrates to Jerusalem, were animated in all their proceedings by a strong religious impulse, and therefore one of their first concerns was to restore their ancient house of worship by rebuilding their destroyed Temple and reinstituting the sacrificial rituals known as the korbanot.
On the invitation of Zerubbabel, the governor, who showed them a remarkable example of liberality by contributing personally 1,000 golden darics, besides other gifts, the people poured their gifts into the sacred treasury with great enthusiasm.[4] First they erected and dedicated the altar of God on the exact spot where it had formerly stood, and they then cleared away the charred heaps of debris which occupied the site of the old temple; and in the second month of the second year (535 BC), amid great public excitement and rejoicing, the foundations of the Second Temple were laid. A wide interest was felt in this great movement, although it was regarded with mingled feelings by the spectators.[5][6]
The Samaritans made proposals for co-operation in the work. Zerubbabel and the elders, however, declined all such cooperation, feeling that the Jews must build the Temple without help. Immediately evil reports were spread regarding the Jews. According to Ezra 4:5, the Samaritans sought to "frustrate their purpose" and sent messengers to Ecbatana and Susa, with the result that the work was suspended.
Seven years later, Cyrus the Great, who allowed the Jews to return to their homeland and rebuild the Temple, died,[7] and was succeeded by his son Cambyses. On his death, the "false Smerdis", an imposter, occupied the throne for some seven or eight months, and then Darius I of Persia became king (522 BC). In the second year of this monarch the work of rebuilding the temple was resumed and carried forward to its completion,[8] under the stimulus of the earnest counsels and admonitions of the prophets Haggai and Zechariah. It was ready for consecration in the spring of 516 BC, more than twenty years after the return from captivity. The Temple was completed on the third day of the month Adar, in the sixth year of the reign of King Darius, amid great rejoicings on the part of all the people[9] although it was evident that the Jews were no longer an independent people, but were subject to a foreign power. The Book of Haggai includes a prediction[10] that the glory of the second temple would be greater than that of the first.
Hellenistic era[edit]
In 332 BC the Persians were defeated by Alexander the Great. After his demise, and the division of Alexander's empire among his generals, the Seleucid Kingdom was formed.
During this time currents of Judaism were influenced by Hellenistic philosophy developed from the 3rd century BC, notably the Jewish diaspora in Alexandria, culminating in the compilation of the Septuagint. An important advocate of the symbiosis of Jewish theology and Hellenistic thought is Philo.
Hasmonean era[edit]
A deterioration of relations between hellenized Jews and religious Jews led the Seleucid king Antiochus IV Epiphanes to impose decrees banning certain Jewish religious rites and traditions. Consequently, the orthodox Jews revolted under the leadership of the Hasmonean family, (also known as the Maccabees). This revolt eventually led to the formation of an independent Judean kingdom, under the Hasmonaean Dynasty, which lasted from 165 to 37 BC. The Hasmonean Dynasty eventually disintegrated as a result of civil war between the sons of Salome Alexandra - Hyrcanus II and Aristobulus II. The people, who did not want to be governed by a king but by theocratic clergy, made appeals in this spirit to the Roman authorities. A Roman intervention in the civil war in Judea was then made, following Syrian campaign of conquest and annexation, led by Pompey. The pro-Parthian Hasmonean rival brother however soon brought Parthian support and the throne changed until Herod the Great established himself as a new pro-Roman king of Judea.
Herodian Kingdom and Tetrarchy[edit]
Judean kingdom under Herod experienced a period of growth and expansion. As a close and loyal ally to the Romans, Herod extended his rule as far as Arabia, created ambitious projects of construction and renovated the Temple.
After Herod's death in 4 BC, the kingdom was partitioned to several parts to each of his three sons (initially four parts) - forming the Tetrarchy. The central part of the Tetrarchy was given to Herod Archelaus, including Judea proper, Idumea and Samaria. In 6 AD, the country fell into unrest, and the Herodian ruler of Judea was deposited in favor of forming a new Roman province - Roman Judea. Philip ruled Ituraea and Trachonitis until his death in 34 AD when he was succeeded as tetrarch by Herod Agrippa I, who had previously been ruler of Chalcis. Agrippa surrendered Chalis to his brother Herod and ruled in Philip's stead. On the death of Herod Antipas in 39 AD Herod Agrippa became ruler of Galilee also, and in 41 AD, as a mark of favour by the emperor Claudius, succeeded the Roman prefect Marullus as ruler of Iudaea. With this acquisition, the Herodian Kingdom of the Jews was nominally re-established until 44 AD though there is no indication that status as the Roman province was suspended.
Roman Judea[edit]
The Roman province of Judaea extended over parts of the former regions of the Hasmonean and Herodian kingdoms. It was created in 6 ce with the Census of Quirinius and merged into Syria Palaestina after 135 ce.

In numerous; studies, researchers have suggested anomalies in semantics in patients with schizophrenia. In this study, the authors addressed whether one such anomaly might reflect a difference in knowledge content or in the structure or organization of this information. Using a category member production task and a typicality rating task, the authors assessed knowledge content and found that patients' and control participants' knowledge about categories of foods and animals was very similar. In terms of structure, their findings from a mathematical model of category judgment (the instantiation model; E. Heit & L. W. Barsalou, 1996) revealed a similar category structure in patients and control participants. In conclusion, the authors suggest that the content and organization of categories in patients with schizophrenia is similar to that in healthy control participants.

Does anyone know anything about the Salona Yacht company?
Hi Everyone...
I am trying to find out some information about the Salona Yacht company in Newport, RI. It turns out my boat was made by them in 1977. From Googling I can see that there seem to be Salona Yacht companies in other countries, but I don't know if this is the same company or not. As near as I can tell, Salona in Newport is long gone. Any information anyone has is welcome, thank you! |

I love this dress, it is very beautiful on. However the picture makes it look almost shiny, but it is not shiny at all. It has a long sheer see-through material on the outside and a short white slip inside, so you can see your legs where the slip does not cover. This dress is true to size.

HARTFORD, Conn. (WTNH) -- The first change in state law in direct response to Sandy Hook occurred during Wednesday night's special session. And Thursday lawmakers announced a roster of eight proposed changes in the state's gun laws. Story continues below Some state lawmakers are not going to wait to see what happens at the federal level. They want to move ahead on changes early next month. Less than a week after the atrocity at Sandy Hook, a detailed and extensive package of proposed changes in gun laws has already been announced at the State Capitol. "A number of years ago, I worked with one of the mothers of one of the victims and I asked her, 'what can I do to help,' and she said, 'I want you to come down and see me,'" said Sen. Beth Bye. State Senator Beth Bye is the co-author of the proposals. She is a friend of the mother of six-year-old Ana Grace Marquez-Greene. "I sat with her mother, with her husband and they said, 'we just want to make sure something happens," Bye said, "and she's particularly concerned about mental health care, as well as gun control." The proposal would immediately expand the definition of Assault Weapon under current state law to apply to firearms which show one particular physical trait, as opposed to two, like the presence of a pistol grip beneath the action of the weapon. And despite the fact that there are perhaps thousands of legal handguns in the state with a greater than 10 cartridge magazine capacity, this proposal would prohibit the sale and possession of any magazine with a capacity of over 10. The proposal would also call for a 50 percent sales tax on all ammunition, permits would be required to purchase ammunition, and the online purchase of ammunition would be prohibited. Bye also says she is swamped with calls for this from her own district. "My constituents have been screaming to do something...now," Bye said. In their special session Wednesday night, lawmakers have already changed the first law in direct response to the Sandy Hook shooting, It will allow school districts access to state funds for improving school security, using a fund normally used for roads and other town improvements. "They may well have some needs in the area of school security in particular that they want to address right away," said State Budget Director Ben Barnes, "and if we can give them the flexibility to use those resources in order to get that work done as quickly as possible, it's the least we can do." This was the last minute idea of Republican State Rep. John Fry of Ridgefield, and the legislative leadership quickly re-wrote a section of the budget mitigation bill passed Wednesday night to get it done. Copyright © 2012 WTNH TV. All rights reserved.

See. The anti gun morons are calling and screaming. And look what's happening. All you guys saying give it time. Let them mourn, are going to lose the fight to the callous tactics of the left. Screw the lawmakers, they're not mourning anymore than any of us. Screw the anti gunners, they're not mourning any more than us. I hope this serves as a lesson to everyone advocating silence and respect. Silence gets you drowned out before you decide to speak.
Arbitrary enforcement of the law is the mark of tyranny. Citizens will always fight against it.
Any word from the NRA ?
I don't need No stinking signature.
I'm very interested in the press release they are supposed to do tomorrow, my membership hinges on it.
I do not think the NRA is going to step down on defending the 2nd amendment.
The voters of Conn. are demanding these new laws. What are the gun owners in Conn. doing to fight their state battles. I have not seen one push back from Conn, gun owners. There are 4 million NRA members scattered across this nation. How many vote in Conn.? It takes residents of each state to fight new gun laws. The NRA news conference is set for Friday. The Liberals will beat hell out of us.

The fashion world has always had a thing for gender bending, from Annie Hall's signature tie to Miss J. Alexander's lessons for walking in high heels, but this season at New York Fashion Week, adoration of androgyny is reaching a whole new level.
Meet Andrej Pejic, a thoroughly male model who's enjoying quite a bit of mainstream success in the world of womenswear, thanks to his strikingly good--and undeniably feminine--looks. When he first appeared on Jean Paul Gaultier's spring 2011 runway, editors everywhere were wondering, "Who is this pretty blonde girl?" He's since become the face of Marc by Marc Jacobs, wore a wedding dress to close Gaultier's couture show, and is officially the poster boy for modern-day androgyny in the fashion world.
Sign up for our style newsletter and get the best of our fashion blog, delivered straight to your inbox!
Over at The Cut, they wondered if his runway success would translate on the other side of the Atlantic: "But will American designers have the moxie to cast him?" they wrote. "And if he walks in an otherwise all-female show, will he be paid by that scale or the lower male model rates?" We can't attest to how much cash he's taking in, but we do know that designer Yoana Baraschi has already cast him for her fall 2011 show, taking place this Sunday at Lincoln Center. Here's what her camp has to say about the choice: "For her Fall 2011 collection, Yoana Baraschi was inspired by a faux reality that transports the audience into a world where 70's excess glam divas morph into a virtual world of modern heroines. Andrej Pejic was the perfect choice to bring this heroine to life and take the audience on Baraschi's journey through Virtualand."
We think it's kind of cool to see the heteronormative societal standards being challenged by the fashion world...and to know that there's so much more than just one ideal of beauty out there. What do you gals make of Andrej Pejic? Do you think he'll become the next big face in the modeling world? Can you believe how straight-up pretty he is? Discuss!

RPGWatch Side Quest: 2006 - 2007 Overview, Part 1
View Single Post
January 3rd, 2007, 16:17
I loved 2006 as well. Oblivion, NWN2, Titan Quest, Lazarus, and Minions of Mirth all got much playing time on my system. 2007 isn't looking so good but there are a couple of games that might get some significant play. I'm really hoping to see some indie games. Vault Dweller might release Age of Decadence, which would be a treat. Can't wait for the next part of your article, Dhruin.

This tutorial covers developing the business services for the Fusion Order Demo Application using ADF Business Components
Time to Complete
Approximately 60 minutes
This tutorial covers the following topics:
Overview | |
Prerequisites | |
Starting JDeveloper and Configuring the Database | |
Develop Business Services using ADF Business Components | |
Customize the default components | |
Summary |
Place the cursor over this icon to load and view all the screenshots for this tutorial. (Caution: This action loads all screenshots simultaneously, so response time may be slow depending on your Internet connection.)
Note: Alternatively, you can place the cursor over an individual icon in the following steps to load and view only the screenshot associated with that step. You can hide an individual screenshot by clicking it.
In this tutorial, you use ADF Business Components to develop business services for viewing the products and orders in the Fusion Order Demo sample application.
Before starting this tutorial, you should have successfully installed an Oracle database and JDeveloper 11 Production.
Starting JDeveloper and Configuring the Database
1. |
Start JDeveloper by selecting Start > All Programs > Oracle WebLogic > JDeveloper Studio 18.104.22.168.0 JDeveloper will begin initializing. Select Default Role when you are prompted by the role dialog and click OK. In the Configure File Type Associations box, select all the checkboxes, then press OK. Click No when you are prompted to migrate from a previous release. |
2. |
Close the Tip of the Day and Updates dialog boxes. |
3. |
In the next few steps, you create the database schema for the tutorial using an ant script that you run from JDeveloper. First, download the Infrastructure.zip to a temporary location on your hard drive. In the file explorer, right click on the file Infrastructure.zip and choose Winzip > Extract to... |
4. |
In the extract dialog, enter the folder where you want to extract the Infrastructure workspace (eg: c:\oracleFusion\tutorial). You may extract the file elsewhere, but ensure that you do not extract it to a location containing a space anywhere in the path. |
5. |
Next, open the workspace in JDeveloper that contains the build scripts. In the Application Navigator, choose Open Application. Browse for the location where you extracted the Infrastructure.zip in the previous step. Select Infrastructure.jws and click Open. |
6. |
There are four projects in this workspace. Projects are logical groupings of files where you store work in JDeveloper. Expand the MasterBuildScript project. |
7. |
Expand the Resources node and double click build.properties in the Application Navigator to open the file in JDeveloper's editor. This file contains settings that are used to run the ant script. |
8. |
Modify the following values in the build.properties file to point to your environment's unique settings, using a forward slash as indicated below):
Click the Save icon in the toolbar to save the file. |
9. |
In the Application Navigator, right click build.xml in the MasterBuildScript project and choose Run Ant Target -> buildAll. You will see JDeveloper's integrated Ant Log window appear, and then another window will appear prompting you for your database system password. Enter it and click Continue. If you do not see this window and the Ant log is stopped at "setProperties:", minimize JDeveloper, the window is probably hidden behind JDeveloper. You will see several messages, including a harmless error. When you see the following text, the "FOD" schema has been successfully installed. BUILD SUCCESSFUL
1. |
First, create a new workspace for the application. In the Application Navigator, select the dropdown next to the Infrastructure workspace and choose New Application... |
2. |
In the first step of the wizard, Create Application, name the Application FusionOrderApp. Enter the directory where you want to store the workspace and all its related files, e.g., c:\oracleFusion\tutorial\FusionOrderApp. Click Finish. |
3. |
In the second step of the wizard, Create Project, set the Project Name to ADFBC_Model, and click OK. |
4. |
In the Application Navigator, right-click the ADFBC_Model project and select New... from the context menu. In the New Gallery, expand Business Tier and select ADF Business Components in the Categories list. Select Business Components from Tables in the Items list. Click OK. |
5. |
In the Initialize Business Components Project dialog, click the green plus to create a new connection. In the Create Database Connection dialog, provide the following details, leaving all other values as their defaults:
Click Test Connection to ensure the connection details are correct. Click OK to exit the Create Database Connection dialog, and click OK again to continue developing business components. |
6. |
In step 1 of 6 of the Create Business Components from Tables wizard, set the package name to adfbc_model.entities. Click Query to populate the list of available tables. Control-click to select ORDERS, ORDER_ITEMS, PERSONS, PRODUCTS_BASE, and PRODUCT_IMAGES in the Available list. Click the Add button to shuttle the tables to the Selected list. |
7. |
On step 2 of 6, set the package to adfbc_model.queries . This logically separates the persistent objects (entities) from the queryable objects (views). Click the Add All button to shuttle all objects to the Selected list. Click Next. |
8. |
On step 3 of 6, click Next. You will be using only view objects that can be updated. |
9. |
On step 4 of 6, click the Application Module checkbox if it is not already checked. Name the package adfbc_model.service, and name the application module FusionOrderApp . Click Next. |
10. |
JDeveloper provides several different techniques for managing components. One is to use a diagram of the components and their relationships. In this step, you can choose to have JDeveloper create a diagram of the components that you are creating. On step 5 of 6, select the Business Components Diagram checkbox and accept the default package and name. Click Next to continue. |
11. |
The final page of the Business Components Wizard shows the objects and relationships that are created when you click Finish. Click Finish to complete the wizard. |
12. |
To test the default business components you've created, in the Applications Navigator, expand Application Sources and adfbc_model.service. Right click FusionOrderApp and choose Run. |
13. |
Click Connect to connect to the FOD connection. |
14. |
You will see some warning messages in the message log, but the Business Components Browser should still appear in a new window. In the resulting Business Components Browser window, double click OrdersView1 to see all orders placed. Use the arrows to scroll through the rows of orders. Double click the OrderItemsOrdersFkLink1 view link nested beneath OrdersView1. This link was created because of the foreign key relationship between OrderItems.OrderId and Orders.OrderId relationship defined in the database schema. This view of the link displays all order items for each order record. Close the Business Components Browser when you are finished. |
To complete the application scenario, some modifications to the wizard-generated business components need to be made.
1. |
First, expand adfbc_model.entities in the Application Navigator and notice the table-based entities OrderItems, Orders, Persons, etc. Double click OrderItems to open it in the editor. Click the Attributes node in the editor and notice that all table columns for the Order_Items table have been added to the entity. You can modify the attributes (such as providing validation), add attributes from other tables, and add non-persistent (transient) attributes from this dialog. |
2. |
Double click the Quantity Attribute to open the attribute editor. In the Edit Attribute dialog, click the Validation node. Click New... to create a new validation rule for the Quantity attribute (the schema-based validation rules for the attribute have already been added to the validation rules). Select
Range from the Rule Type dropdown.
Click the Failure Handling tab. |
3. |
Select the Error radio button to indicate that processing should stop upon validation failure. In the Message Text window, click the magnifying glass icon to select the text from a resource bundle. In the Select Text Resource dialog, specify the value Please enter a quantity between 1 and 10 . Enter entities.OrderItems.Quantity.error as the Key. Enter any description text. Click Save and Select. Click OK twice to return to the OrderItems entity editor. This validation rule will be applied each time a new quantity is entered using this business component entity. Additionally, regardless of the type of client used to create the UI, the internationalizable error message string will be used to notify the user of the error. In a real application, you would add many more validation rules to complete the application's business logic. If the declarative validation rules (such as Compare, Length, and Range) do not handle your application's validation needs, you can also use Groovy scripts, Regular Expressions, or Java methods to implement validation rules for an entity or its attributes. |
4. |
Now add a transient attribute to the OrderItems entity to calculate the Order Item's total price based on the quantity and unit price. In the Attributes tab of the OrderItems entity, click the green plus icon to add an entity attribute. In the New Entity Attribute dialog, enter LineItemTotal as the Name. Choose Number as the Type. Deselect the Persistent checkbox. The attribute will be calculated from an expression and not persisted in the database. Select Expression as the Value Type. Click Edit to create the expression. In the Edit Expression Editor dialog, enter the following groovy script as the expression ((Quantity == null) ? 0 : Quantity) * ((UnitPrice == null) ? 0 : UnitPrice) Select
Always to always recalculate this expression.
Click OK to exit the expression editor and again to create the new entity attribute. Click Save All in the toolbar to save your work. |
5. |
Now add the LineItemTotal attribute to the OrderItemsView view object. In the Application Navigator, expand adfbc_model.queries and double click OrderItemsView to open it in the editor. Click the Attributes node in the editor and click Add from Entity... Select the LineItemTotal transient attribute and shuttle it to the selected column. Click OK. |
6. |
adfbc_model.entities in the Application Navigator and notice the table-based entities OrderItems, Orders, Persons, etc. The relationships between entities are called Associations and are named <DetailEntityMasterEntity>FkAssoc by default.
Right click adfbc_model.entities and choose New Association... |
7. |
In the Create Association dialog, accept the default package name and enter ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkAssoc as the Name. Click Next. |
8. |
In the Select Source Attribute panel, expand OrderItems and select the ProductId attribute. In the Select Destination Attribute panel, expand ProductsBase and select the ProductId attribute. Click Add to create an association between these two attributes of the OrderItems and ProductsBase entities. Click Next twice and then click Finish to create the association. Click Save All to save your work. |
9. |
View objects are "slices" of data, and contain queries of one or more entity object attributes. View objects can also be based entirely on a SQL query. In the case of the wizard-generated view objects, there is one view object per entity object, which selects all attributes for that entity. Your application might select only a subset of those attributes, or you might have multiple view objects based on one entity, to allow for multiple queries of that same data. To see the view objects that were created, expand adfbc_model.queries in the Application Navigator. Notice that OrderItemsView, OrdersView, PersonsView, etc. are listed, as are the view links between them. The wizard generated one view link per foreign key association. Now add a view link for the association you created in the previous step. Right click adfbc_model.queries and choose New View Link... |
10. |
In the Create View Link dialog, accept the default package name and enter ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkLink as the name. Click Next. |
11. |
In the Select Source Attribute panel, expand OrderItemsView and select ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkAssoc. In the Select Destination Attribute panel, expand ProductsBaseView and select ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkAssoc. Click Add to create a view link based on the association. Click Next twice and then click Finish to create the association. |
12. |
View objects and links define how data may be viewed. Clients (either web, mobile, or Swing) that access view objects do so by accessing a data model. The data model in ADF is stored in an Application Module. An application module, therefore, is one type of service. You might have clients which utilize data from other services as well, such as a web service or EJB. In the case of ADF, you have already seen the Business Components tester which allows you to test the data model. To define the data model further, expand adfbc_model.service in the Application Navigator and double click FusionOrderApp to open the application module editor. Select the Data Model tab in the editor. Notice the master objects ProductsBaseView1, ProductImagesView1, OrderItemsView1, etc. listed on the right hand side of the Data Model editor. The high level view objects have a "1" appended because they are the first instance of a particular view object. For the dependent view objects (those based on a view link), the instance number increases accordingly. For example, OrdersView1 is the master object of OrderItemsView2, which is related via a view link. Now add a new instance to this OrderItemsView2 instance for the ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkLink you created in a previous step. Select OrderItemsView2 on the right hand side of the editor. On the left hand side of the editor, expand OrderItemsView and select ProductsBaseView via ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkLink. The editor displays what the name of the instance will be named in the New View Instance field, in this case, ProductsBaseView2. To demonstrate that you can name these instances as you like, change the New View Instance name to OrderItemProductDetail. Finally, shuttle the instance to the right to add it to the data model. |
13. |
Next you further customize the view objects for the application's needs. In this case, we want to view Orders for a particular customer, so that when a customer logs into the application, they see only the orders they've placed. In the Application Navigator, expand adfbc_model.queries and double click OrdersView to open the view object editor. Select the Query tab and click the pencil icon in the top right of the editor to modify the query. |
14. |
In the Query editor, enter the following in the Where clause: Orders.CUSTOMER_ID = :custId |
15. |
Click the Bind Variables node to define the custId bind variable. Click New and in the Variable tab, specify custId as the Name and Number as the Type. Select the Control Hints tab and enter Customer Id as the Label Text. The label will be used for each UI component that binds to this variable. Click OK to modify the view object's where clause. Click Save All to save your work. |
16. |
To test the modifications you've made in the data model, run the business components tester. Right click FusionOrderApp and choose Run. |
17. |
Click Connect to connect to the FOD connection. |
18. |
In the resulting Business Components Browser, double click OrdersView1. Since you created a bind variable, the tester prompts you to provide a value. Enter 108 and click OK. |
19. |
Use the arrows to scroll through the rows of orders. Double click the OrderItemsOrdersFkLink1 view link nested beneath OrdersView1, and click OK to use the same bind variable value. Double click the link you just created, ProductsBaseOrderItemsFkLink1 to view the product data for the currently selected order and order item. The ProductsBaseView contains many attributes, so you may need to resize the window and columns in order to view the data. Close the Business Components Browser when you are finished. |
You have built business services that will be used to create the client application for the Fusion Order Demo sample. In the next lesson, you will expose these services and create the user interface for the sample.

from Fat Joe (Ft. Chris Brown, Fabolous, Kirko Bangz & Mary J. Blige) – Another Round (Remix) Lyrics on Genius
The ACL is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament of the knee. Fat Joe employs an extended, slightly belaboured, metaphor: From the previous line, he sees the bedroom as a sort of basketball court in which he is dominant, and his performance outstanding.
"Back-shots" (here, a double entendre) are shots that bounce of the back-board as they are scored. ACL injuries often occur "when an athlete rapidly decelerates, followed by a sharp or sudden change in direction"*. We are then left to imagine that Fat Joe somehow manages to achieve, while in bed with a girl, the injury-inducing intensity of "going hard in the paint".
